Alysa shrugged. She was feeling a bit peckish.
"Hey, does anyone have any meat in this place? I want a big, bloody steak, so rare that it's not dead yet."

Herald turned to Alysa. "I can help", he said while waving his hands, "I'll conjure up something for you." He tried conjuring up a nice meal, but instead wound up putting a dead rabbit on her table, accompanied by an arrow in it side.
Kaze laughed at this spectacle. "Nice one, next time try NOT waving your hands and you'll get it right", with this Herald gave Kaze a scowl and looked back at Alysa, "I'm sorry miss. I'll try next harder time." He bowed and sat back at his table. Kaze continued his laugh,"At least we now have the comic relief", he sat back in his chair and stretched.

((OOC Thanks RMB. that's a great character.))
Jaryd, with a hop skip and a jump, brought out a large Ox haunch. "here you go, free of charge as your first food order." he then skipped back into the back.

"Heh, thanks, anyway, Herald."
Alysa picked up the ox-haunch, studied it for a moment, then began laying into it like a starving animal. The collar around her neck glowed, and the juices and flesh which would have otherwise stained her delicate clothing vanished as soon as they neared her.
When she put down the meat to sip her drink, she was as immaculately attired as though she had spent horus prettying herself up. Notcing people staring, she fingered her collar.
"Gotta love the Collar of Dawn's Cleansing Light. Keeps you neat and clean even if you just waded through a tide of blood and offal."

Gan lifted his hands up, "Conflict alot of conflict, a life that seems to point to significance, a battle that connot be won for there are endless soldiers, instead they will both find either closure or destruction in this new savior. All and all you have a life with little enjoyment and you seem to plan never to have any. I know the fate of your world may rest on your shoulders or on one you may know, but there is more in this world than you may know. Have fun finding it or if you cannot find it enjoy what time you have left it is assuredly worth it."
He turned to the magician of lost cause, "Now let us have alook in there," he stood for a second and stared up and removed his hands, "that is quite possibly the most worthless vision I've ever seen therefor I belive the same for your life. Worthless. Any person who gave me a vision like that would likly better off doing the world a favor and just killing himself. Hey no worries though, there is the possibility you'll find some worth in your life. But do us all a favor and lay off the magic I don't want you to heal one of our comrads and end up turning him inside out. Just keep it simple."
Suddenly from outside the bar they all hear a noise, a yell with much anger laced within, "NIIIIAAALLLLL!!!!!!" suddenly The doors fly open and incomes the sorce. She is about the same age as Niall and has the features of a human with green scales a tail and great bat wings coming off of her. She wore a simple pair of breeches and a vest. Her hair was grey and her eyes currently were red she stared down the line and aproached Gan, "Where is he?" he pointed off to where Niall sat and she stalked over he looked up and he seemed to remember something right then and said, "Oh dear gods I'm sorry."
"Sorry isn't nearly enough right now mister now why are you here and not at the wedding?" she said her eyes almost literally letting out fire
"I can explain you see me and my brothers you know were walking through the forest of dreams and..."
She cut him off, "Enough you can tell me later now come on." she picked him up and began dragging him to the door, "Now say goodbye to your brothers and friends Niall."
"Buy guys." he said to them smiling as he was dragged the rest of the way out.

(ooc:talk about a bad day for Niall)
"Oh thanks Gan", Herald said walking over to the bar,"I mean, I already knew my life was worthless. No one needed to tell me about it though." He slammed the bar and told Jaryd,"Gimme the strongest stuff you have", as he slammed a coupe gold pieces on the table.
Meanwhile Kaze was laughing at Herald. "Were you serious Gan? Now I know its true, I don't think he'll try to heal anyone for while since he'll think he would turn them inside out." Herald, furious, walked over to Kaze and smacked him. "Just who do you think you are? This tough man, this...this... tough guy act..." As soon as he finished it Kaze stood up and looked down at him (Herald is that short, remember "dwarf like"). "Tough guy huh? Get out of here before I decide to crush you myself", Kaze's arms started to charge with energy and Herald started getting froggy.
Herald stood back and started waving his arms chanting whatever he was chanting. Kaze stood there and laughed. As then a small squirell appeared in front of Kaze. "Is this all you can conjure up 'great sorceror'? I'll show you true power", just as he stopped he placed his hand on Heralds shoulder. This sent Herald flying back into his chair at the bar with his drink waiting for him. Herald let out a small puff of smoke as he turned around to drink his drink like nothing had happened.
(ooc2: The thing with Kaze and Herald is like a Magnus and Orphen relationship (for anyone that watched the anime, although Magnus was never treated like that).

Suddenly the doors opened again and in she came but only halfway, "Oh and Gan, Bri said she accepts your proposal,"
Gan suddenly made a sound that if translated would possibly say, "Fsking awesome!!!!"
She turned off to Tre, "And Treana asks a proposal to you do you accept it?"
He looked up at the ceiling and smiled, "Ask her if she knows the way to Intera, she'll understand."
She smiled, "Gan, Bri will be waiting later tonite at the Fate Cryer."
He looked and said, "I'll be there don't worry, and thanks Rina."
"Tis nothing my brother. Ow!" she said as Niall dragged her out this time.
Tre looked back up at his current opponents, "You know the longer you just sit there the more confident I am that you have already lost."
OOCAl this was a bit of a setup to get them out before Thursdays end

He looks aroudn the room in utter confusion. "I believe I missed something," he mumbles to himself, then gets up and walks to the bar. "I'm interested in renting a room from you sir." he says to Jaryd as he passes by, "could you give me a price range?"

Herald took a sip of his drink, he squinted at the strong flavor. He took a look back at the others playing cards and sighed. He then got up and walked over to the table next to them.
While Herald was doing that Kaze looked over. "Oh god", he said to himself as he looked down,"Well, I think we should play another game of cards. Whaddaya guys say?"

Shadow returned from her dealings outside, and sat back down with Alysa.
"I would have expected solars to be more... eloquent and reserved. Especially an eclipse." she thought to herself as Alysa seemed to go at her steak like a wild animal.
"An interesting artifact." Shadow observes kindly, while ordering her own meal from the waiter. A rare steak was her preferred entree, and soon enough, Shadow too was enjoying her meal, albeit at a much slower and more reserved pace.

((Have fun then, Fuzzy. your name is slightly too long for my purposes, so from this point on, I shall call you da fuzz.))
Nikose stomped into the bar, clapping his hands as if cold. "whew! That was a fun one then! gimme a cup of hot cocoa, Jaryd!" He noticed the new worker behind the bar. "hey, how about you try it? don't mess with anything not labeled, and don't you DARE go into the closet in the back."
Jaryd hops over. "Go easy on the new guy, becuase... well, cause he's new."
Trevvor rolled his eyes, and stared glowingly from across the bar at the lovely woman digging into the bar with such a ravid force. 'She's acting like a troll with the force she digs into that,' he thought to himself lustfully.

After Beil returned inside, Kard shouted soemthing about the fight being delayed, but the bets still going. "So, how did it go?" He asked Beil, the half goblin shrugging and chugging a small potion that Kard had been carrying, after healing up his wounds psionically. Most of them had in fact been internal and psychological, however, so it wasn't very noticable.

He reaches into his coat and pulls out a small vial of what appears to be a dark chocolate. He reaches into the other side and pulls out a small glass. He pours the contents of the vial in to the cup, then holds it on his open palm till it starts to steam and hans it to Nikose. "Hot, be careful. It's very potent, I recomend small sips."

Alysa looked over to Shadow, who was eating sedately.
"Bad habit of mine, I'm afraid. I enjoy my meat entirely too much."
She smiled sheepishly.

05-02-2005, 12:23 PM
Jaryd grinned. "Sleeping in the common room is acceptable. it's just over there." Jaryd pointed off to a room slightly to the left.
Nikose looked at ((insert the fuzz's name here)) and said, "Yo! where's my cocoa?" and stretched out on his stool, balancing tentetively on the stool.
Trevvor, working up the nerve again, goes into the back and brings out another Ox Haunch. He stomps over and sets it on the table next to Alyssa. He tears off a section, and practically swallows it whole. he stripped the meat down to the bone, and tossed the small torn-off peice onto the table next to his plate. he still had several sections to go, and he cast a furtive glance out of the corner of his eye at Alyssa. he almost pointedly ignored shadow, knowing that He himself could niether harm him, not could shadow harm Trevvor.
((OOC taking a moment to mention another fact about trevvor: he has an amulet of acid immunity, and a ring of fire immunity. he's protected from his only two weaknesses, and is unkillable. he will regenerate even if you cut off his head or cut him straight in half. he's cool that way.))

He turns, vaults the bar, and lifts Naharu onto his shoulder, carrying him behind the bar and setting down in a small chair he drags over for him. "Stay here and you should be fine. Would you like me to heal you? Though why you haven't used the vial I handed you..."
OmniShadow
05-02-2005, 06:32 PM
"Well... Chakra and soul energy dont heal like that. My wounds are not serious its just that I am completly empty of my inner energies." He said to (Fuzzy)

05-02-2005, 06:35 PM
He smiles and removes the wrapping from his left hand. Immediatly, huge amounts of energy begin to roll of the exposed part of his flesh, he presses the hand against Naharu's chest and lets his energies flow into Naharu, restoring hm enough so that he can move of his own accord before re-wrapping his hand
OmniShadow
05-02-2005, 06:39 PM
"Wha, wha, what was that?" Naharu said, shocked by the experience. He imidiately felt energy moving inside him. 'Amazing, he could actualy restore some of my chakra...' He thought as he tried to stand up. "I have no idea of what you did but I thanks you." He said to (Fuzzy)

"My pleasure." He walks away and begins wiping down the bar. "That was the ability that makes me an outcast in my own world." he says this while his eyes are focused on the bar, but his body posture gives a small hint as to the feelings that war within him.
A young man wearing a light blue tunic and leggings walks through the door. His hair is a dark brown that is covered by a large brimmed black hat. He carries a guitar-like instrument, and as he scans the room his eyes fall upon the man who has been referred to only as he. A huge smile spreads across his face, "Eversor!". The man at the bar looks up at the sound of his own name, and his eyes widen in shock. He leaps the bar and slams into the smaller man, lifting him into his arms and embracing him. When they finally part, Eversor begins to pour out questions "How did you get here? How did you survive the blast? Where's Janet and the children? How are you? Is Elise with you? Oh gods it's good to see you again Vates." he embraces the smaller man again. "One at a time, my friend," Vates manages to squeeze out past the other man's deluge of questons. "Let's get something to eat and drink before we start to talk about what's happened since you dissapeared. But first, I think you should step outside real quick.". Looking puzzled, Eversor steps outside, and a roar of happiness ensues, followed by laughter and squeels of delight. Eversor walks into the bar with a multitude of children hangin off of him, and Vates and two young women who can only be Elise and Janet. A huge smile is on all three of their faces, and tears well up in Eversor's eyes. He carries the children over to the bar and bades them each take a seat, he then serves each of them some sort of fizzy cordial which they drink hastily and with great ardour. As he refills the children's drinks he begins to talk solemnly with Vates, the two young women tending to the children. Eventually Eversor breaks off from talking with Vates and gets a few room keys from Jaryd, which he promptly pays for a month in advance, as well as all the drinks the children demolish. Soon Vates and the young women herd the children off to their rooms, leaving Eversor with a tremendously joyful expression on hs face.
OOC: there, now he has a name.

Kard elbowed Beil softly. "Hey little buddy. That troll over there has some major blingage on him. Do you want to snag it on our way out?" The bard whispered. Beil gave Kard a look that most masters reserve for their dogs after the dog has managed to tip over every potted plant in the house. "Oh, well, I guess not then. But we should still stir up some kind of trouble. After all, that stupid law-only town cost me some major reparations after they confiscated my ring of card-changing and bracelet of booze-making. Those things were damn hard to re-acquire from the police. So, what do you say that we do something simple to start?" Beil made the motion of sighing, compulsing everyone but he and Kard in the bar to become completely unaware of Kard's prescense. Their minds simply blocked out his actions for the duration of the period, and they did not notice that he had suddenly dissappeared, nor did they care. Kard vaulted over the counter and proceeded to touch every last bottle, keg, and container period of alchohol with his bracelet made of several dark purple and grain-like beads, boosting their alchohol containment ratings. In scientific terms, the alchohol had obtained the magical 150 proof- In short, enough of it could kill a person with ease, but was also the perfect ammount to get easily drunk off of. Kard lept back into his seat just as Beil dispelled the effect, and no one cared where kard had been, dispite his charming personality, but were simply relieved to know that he was back. "Now, what say we buy everyone a round of drinks?" Kard said, snapping his fingers at the bartender, whom he had managed not to bump into while he was "spiking" the liquids.

Eversor turns toward the smaller creature, instinctively knowing something is wrong. He walks over to him and asks in a polite manner "What would you like sir?".

05-02-2005, 07:42 PM
Kard enthusiastically slams his hand, filled with ten platinum coins, onto the bar. "Rounds of drinks for everyone until this is spent. Then, I'll pay for more!" He said, laughing jovially. "Oh, by the way, do you have any music requests for the evening? Trust me, just name the tune and think of it, and I will be able to play it like you've always wanted to hear it." Kard said, grinning. "But I don't do sad songs on the first round, so if you want to hear one, I'll file it away for later."
Fuzzydoom
05-02-2005, 07:50 PM
Eversor's eyes narrow, "Sir, you were just discussing stealing Trevvor's amulets. Now why would someone like you want to buy drinks for everyone? Unless... nevermind sir. A round of drinks for everyone, right away." He walks back to the bar and begins serving everyone drinks. Suddenly he realizes what the tricky young man has done. Brilliant, little does he realize that by increasing the alchol content he also increases the smell of the stuff. Oh well, this should be quite interesting. Eversor continues to pass out drinks to all the inhabitants of the bar and watches them begin to drink. He looks over to where Kard is sitting and gives him a slight nod of understanding.

"You need another energy boost my friend? It would be my pleasure." Eversor responds to this excuse, going along with Kard's ploy. Suddenly Vates walks back down the steps and loooks around in a confused manner, "what smells like alchohol? Oh no, did someone...? We did that once, I have to admit it was funny, if a little crude." He sits down at the bar. He and Eversor begin to talk about events that happened on their home plain before coming here.

Kard shot a glance at Beil. Buddy, scan that guy's mind and tell me what he's thinking. Aparently he can hear me whisper. Kard thought while making a motion to his head. Beil obliged, his face betraying the news. Oh great. I knew I should've learned to whisper better... Kard said to the bartender loudly "Hey, it was just a joke! I admire a troll with a fine taste in jewelry! Besides, who's stupid enough to cross a troll?" Beil quickly met this remark with one of his patented "looks". "Oh, shut i- Er, stop it." Kard said quickly.

Herald looked up from the bar and drunk from his brew. "You know, If I can help in any way just--" he just fell asleep on the bar and drooled just a little. Hearing the snoring Kaze laughed. "I knew that stuff was strong, but I can stand at least 3 glasses of those before even getting a buzz", He swung his sword and stuck into its sheath taking out the candle on the table.

As the entire bar drowsed, due to the alchohol provided by Kard, Eversor wiped down the bar, cleaned the mugs and then drifted off behind the bar. He was rudely awakened by the sound of a horde of children coming down the steps and into the common room. They squawked and yelled and soon the entire bar was awake. Eversor headed into the kitchen, woke up the cokk and her staff, and started cooking breakfast for all the children who seemed to be ravenously hungry. The children went over and began to talk to some of the guests, one of the more adventurous boys started to toy with Kaze's gun, while another tried to lift his sword. Shadow suddenly found herself in the middle of a hundred or so questioning faces, and Beil was being poked and prodded by even more. One of the younger girls hops into Kard's lap
and begs him for a story. Trevvor finds himself being led away by three eager young troll-children, begging him to play some sort of sport that involves a lrage stick and a ball.
(OOC: no new posts for awhile so I threw in a horde of happy children. Have fun with it.)

"Alright, Beil, time to get to- huh?" kard managed to say as children came running down the stairs. Soon the entire bar was once again awake and very hung over. "No, dammit! Stupid brats ruining the pla-" He said under his breath as one of the kids plopped into his lap. She stared up into his yellow eyes with an expression of happyness and slight discontent.
"I want a story!" She said loudly, getting the attention of the other children.
"Uh, hey, Beil, a little help he-eeeeyipe!" Kard said, before noticing that Beil was nearly being poked off of his chair by a horde of kidlets. "Sorry I asked... Alright, little girl, you said you wanted a story, huh?"
The girl nodd4ed enthusiastically. "Yeah! I want to hear a really good story!"
Kard stood up, putting the girl down gently. "Alright, why don't you get your friends to stop poking Beil over there and I'll tell you our story, OK?"
The little girl's eyes sparkled with glee, and she immediately went over to the others and announced that they were going to get a story if they stopped poking the little guy.

The children stopped boking Beil and huddled around Kard, leaving hij no avenue of escape. Eversor, having heard the "Stupid little brats" comment. Was standing behind Kard. He places a strong hand on Kard's shoulder and leans down to whiper to him,"If you hurt any of them, I'll personally put your head through a wall." He walks back to the bar, where a large group of children are waiting for piggy back rides. Eversor lifts the first in line onto his back and begins to trot around the room, the brown haired blue eyed little boy on his back shouting with glee.
"So those two are yours Nikose? I was wondering where they came from. You see, Vates and his wife travel the plains searching out orphaned and abandoned children, bringing them into their care and integrating them into one giant family. Though I'm sorry to see those three go, I'm glad you all were re-united." Eversor says this while toting a small girl past. He stops and extends his hand, "Goodluck on raising them my friend. I hope they turn out to be as strong as their father."

"And I was just about to fall asleep..." Naharu said, a bit disapointed. Although it seemed the kids had not noticed him yet, or they just kept away from him. He had several wounds all over his body, blood stains a little here and there. And red eyes, not to talka bout the cold emotionless look on his face that he always wore. 'Hopefully they will keep away from me...' He thought.

Nikose: "I love my kids. they always know how to get to me, that's why they have their braclets. it let's 'em find me whenever they need me." Nikose grinned. "but thanks for watchin' em. HEY KAZE!" Nikose half turned. "Catch!" and he tossed Nikoli and Nikita through the air for Kaze to catch. "Hey Jagged, let's see that sword skill you been working on against me outside." Nikose gestured towards the door. "I want Kaze to watch though."

05-05-2005, 08:50 PM
Kaze caught each of them with ease but just about lost his balance. "So, you two are Nikose's kids? Nice to meet you, your father is a very good guy and I'd trust him with my life any day." He noticed the looks on their faces. "I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Kaze, my specialty or more like class is a drednought. I can take pretty much any hit you two send at me." He smiled at the children and set them down.

05-05-2005, 09:00 PM
Nikita threw out her foot and caught on Kaze's leg, launching herself backwards and landing lightly on her feet, her hands glowing slightly. she suddenly seemed slightly more mature.
Nikoli let Kaze set him down, and then looked him in the eye. "You should be more careful with this," Nikoli said, handing Kaze back his Minigun from a small peice of no-space bag.

(OOC: Holy crap, he must have good hearing. Kard said that under his breath. Either that or Kard just has that much charisma.)
Kard gazed after Eversor, involutarily shivvering. "Man, some people are weird. Ah well, what was I talking about again?" He said to the huge group of children who had all sat down in front of him.
"Story!" The all shouted in unison.
"Alright, alright, Beil's and my story. Well, I have to warn you, there are a few sad parts, but most of it's pretty funny. Alright, Beil, if you could maybe come up here and sit next to me. Hey! I said no poking!" Kard shouted, as the children who had poked Beil before did so again. Beil moved over to a table, picked up a chair, and moved over next to Kard. "Now, let's see. Well, Beil and I are actually half-brothers. Our father is a big, big shadow dragon named Reskuxintus," Kard stretched out his arms and puffed up his chest, causing the children to laugh. "He took over the place where all the drow live a few years ago. But, we weren't raised with him. Our mothers raised both of us. My mother was a half-demoness from the Infernal plane. Now, you may have heard that demons are nasty and mean, and this is true for most of them, especially my mother. But when I was young she gave me a lute that was enchanted with the ability to cause people to fall asleep. But, I lost that old thing in a bet a long tme ago. When I was around fifteen, I came to a plane you might have been to, the matereal plane. There I met my father, and he wasn't any better than my mother. In fact he was worse. Now, I still had the lute, and my first duty was to put him to sleep for a day. Well, I played and played and played and played, but I couldn't get his eyelids to even blink."
"Now, on my home plane we have a competition that I excelled at from birth. It's a contest of drinking as much booze as you can get your hands on, thusly you come across so really potent stuff. Well, after playing the lute so long, we took a break to eat. When he wasn't looking however, I poured some of this," Kard produced a small vial from inside his pocket. The liquid inside of it was a bright red, with a dark red undulating around the vial. "Into his drink. Then after he drank it, he stumbled around for a bit, just try and imagine a dragon stumbling around. He knocked over a few pillars, maybe a tapestry or two, but he finally sat down on the floor and went to sleep. And this is what I heard: Rrrruggggiiihhh, hhhhrruuurrrrrggghhh." He said, immitating the sound of a snoring dragon. The kids laughed hysterically, and kard at last slipped the vial back into his pocket. "Then I started to travel to as many bars as I could visit all over the planes, spreading happiness and cheer. I did have a few good adventures in those days, but those are for another time. Who wants breakfast? I'll tell you Beil's story after breakfast." The children grumbled somewhat, until finally a young boy closer to Kard stood up and pointed at Beil, giving Kard a frustrated glare.
"Why can't he tell us?"
The other children began arguing this as well, and Beil simply gave Kard a knowing look. Kard had a slightly saddened expression on his face that almost never graced it, one that veiled an even deeper sadness. "Well, I'll tell you after we get breakfast, OK? Come on, let's go see what the kitchen has for us." The children all went along with it, assured of a story after their meal. Kard gave Beil another sad look and sighed. "I suppose I should probably hold back some of the worse details."

OOC: Eversor has the ability to unleash huge amounts of energy and control it however he wishes, making him one bad-ass mother trucker. This also gives him the ability to manipulate sound energy as well as light and kinetic energy.
Eversor smiles hugely at Nikose, "So that's what those things were for? No wonder we could never get them to take them off. That was a good story Kard, I'll start schlepping out breakfast." He sets the young girl on his back onto the floor and heads into the kitchen. Just then, Elise walks down the steps, spots the twins and picks both of them up, one in either hand, and sniffs them as a mother wolf would her cubs. "Baths now," she states in a tone that brooks no arguement. She sets them down and they hurry up the stairs to wherever it is the huge company of children were staying to quickly bathe themselves. Elise then turns and bellows across the common room "ALL CHILDREN IN THIS COMMON ROOM NEED TO BATHE. YOU HAVE UNTL THE COUNT OF TEN TO GET UP THOSE STEPS." And believe you me those children were up thsoe stairs faster than you could say "bath". She turns back to Kaze and smiles prettily, "I'm Elise, it's a pleasure to meet you." She embraces him lightly and hurries back up the steps after the chldren with a shout somewhat to the extent of "I YOU AREN'T IN THOSE TUBS BY THE TIME I GET UP THERE YOU'RE ALL GOING TO GET A GOOD...". Eversor, hearing the yelling, pops his head out the door and, noticing Kaze's slightly confused expression, walks over towards him. "Elise is like that with everyone. To her we are all her family, needless to say her idea of "kin" is somewhat odd but it makes you feel good to know that there's at least one person out there who cares about you." at this he smiles self depreciatingly "Listen to me, I sound like a hippy. Well, I'm off to finish making breakfast, any requests?"

Kard laughed as the kids went up the steps. "Man, reminds me of when I was a kid." As Eversor asked for breakfast requests, Kard laughed again. "man, I may actually want to come back here some time. If you know what a demon eats for breakfast and a dragon eats for lunch!" He paused for a moment, looking over the bar. "Because then you'd know what I absolutely refuse to eat! Make me an omlette that's filled with lots of different peppers and some cheese, and make sure the peppers are spicy enough to wake the dead." he turned to Beil quickly, as the half-blue made a simple gesture of two fingers with the ends of the fingers firmly on the table, and then flipped his hand over and let his hand rise with the fingers extended. "Two eggs sunny side up for my buddy, if you know how to fix them, that is." He put his arms back behind his head, stretching and yawning to reveal long fangs, then smacking his lips tiredly a few times. "Hey, Beil, pick-me-up?" He said to the shorter man, who simply gave him a look that said Later. "Fine, but I really do want you to do it if I go to sleep, alright?" Kard said, Beil sighing and assuring him silently that this would be so.

He looked over at beil's eggs, to dicover that he had already suceeded in eating an etire egg after slicing it up vertically. He got a frustrated look on his face and quickly devoured the omlette, not noticing that it felt as though the inside of his mouth felt like it had just had napalm stuck into it, partially because he wasn't paying attention to how it tasted in a flurry of eating in an attempt to beat Beil, and partially because Beil knew this would happen and had put a damper on what Kard was tasting. Kard succeeded in stuffing the entire thing in his mouth before Beil got to his last bit of egg. "Hrpah!" he said, standing up and pointing at Beil triumphantly. Beil then released his hold on the pure spicyness entering Kard's tongue and Kard coughed, his eyes teared up, and he grabbed at the bar for support. "Wphatr!" he shouted stumbling towards Eversor.

He screams viciously, flipping over the bar, nearly snapping the tap off of a barrel, and chugs ale for what seems like a few minutes. He puts off the tap, carefully gets up onto the bar and over it, and then sits down, his stomach now heavy with liquids. "Hrrrmph, man, I think I'm gonna hurl up that nice, delicious omlette..."

Kard groaned some more, nearly slumping out of the barstool had Beil not kept him propped up. "Oh, geez... I guess this is where the coin stops, Beil. I'm going to die from a stomach ache, or maybe make my innards outards... Whatever case, I want you to bury me someplace nice, where there will always be a party of some sort..." Beil looked around frantically, quickly levitating a bottle of gin, an eggshell, and a bit of nutmeg to his location. The two edible bits went into the concoction, and then the whole thing got mixed in a shotglass and the eggshell removed. Beil lifted the liquid out of the glass in a crude sphere, and sent it down Kard's throat. Kard coughed softly. Then his head lifted up slowly. "Wait, I know this... This is the cure for stomach aches that you perfected yourself, right?" Beil nodded, sending the eggshell into a trashbin in the kitchen. "Oogh, you know I hate the taste of raw eggs, I can't stand it... Gin is another story, and nutmeg?!" Kard riumphantly rose, putting a boot sternly onto the bar. "This drink is horrible enough to kill towns, cities, and possibly a lich or two! The merest thought of this drink still being viable throughout creation while I'm living overrides any nausea that could keep me from my goal! No way in hell is that gonna be served in anyplace even remotely known as a bar!" He stomped his foot for emphasis. "Kard is back, and nothing miniscule like consuming twice the ammount of liquids my body holds is going to stop me from becoming the greatest bargoer in history!"

Beil got hit with the stick in the throat, splattering blood everywhere, and falling over, twitching twice as he died.
At least, that was how he made it seem.
Roughly twenty years of illusionary arts practiced on beings of as high a caliber as mindflayers made the illusion seem completely real. Beil even got down the blood-splatters, as well as the thunk and labored breathing on his part.
Besides, Kard's work with him in special effects had definately allowed him to hone his skills to a level most psions merely dream of. In comparison, his body-affecting psionics weren't as high-up as some psionicists who were equal with him in terms of power, but he made up for it in this and his other two favorite fields, his telekinesis and telepathy.
He masked his prescence, and that of the stick's, which had clattered underneath the lip of the bar without a sound, with a proud perfection. if anyone tried to move his body, they would feel as though they were touching it themselves, feel his exact weight, feel his body cool quickly, as though he had actually died.

"You think the dead man is an illusionist faking his death through magic?" Talaksa asked, intrigued by the interesting sitation most astral bars do not share. She snickers a bit, "Common trick. If he's invisible, you should still be able to hear his breathing." As a rogue, and a mage herself, Talaska had learned many of their popular tricks, and the counters to them.

Beil hadn't survived as long as he had without learning some of the tricks of the trade. When somebody talks aloud about being able to find you, you tend not to stay right in front of them, invisible or not.
That was why he enjoyed floating to the top of the ceiling and staying there when things got rough. He floated directly over Naharu, still invisible, and dodging out of his line of sight. However, he had no idea that Talaksa was looking for him, and his heartbeat was far smaller than anyone else's in the room save the children.
Unfortunately for them, however, he was doing something simultaneously, even as Kard was freaking out and kneeling beside his half-brother's "corpse". Every last bit of gold they had was slowly disappearing. It was going into his satchel, which had been enchanted to become an extra small bag of holding. He of course cloaked the gold, but he also did something exceptionally tricky.
The last tavern they had gone to had small lead tokens used for betting. The fact that it was a realm of giants explained why lead was used, but after being kicked out he still had a bunch left over.
Although it was placing a resolute ammount of stress on his mind that any practiced psion would have been able to pick up once they got past the mental blocking near his "corpse", he was simultaneously cloaking the gold, himself, levitating the gold and replacing it with cloaked lead so that the group would have felt their purses actually start to gain weight. In addition, it helped that these lead coins had been painted to look like platinum ones. Thusly, upon pearing inside, they would see their gold disappearing and being replaced by platinum. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough "platinum" to replace the group's entire ammount of gold, but the standard exchange rate was ten gold to one platinum anyway. Beil could barely think because of all the stress, but the part of him that could thought After this, we are soo out of here.

Holy death-fakings, you're OK! But wait... Why are you stealing these people's money?!" he said shaking Beil about two feet off the ground. "Beil! I nearly have to kill them all in revenge and this was all a hoax for money?! If you really needed to get it back that badly, we could have just won it off of them in cards!" He groaned, putting down Beil and scooping the "platinum" coins out of the air. Beil began compromisingly emptying his bag full of their gold, sulking in shame. "I am so sorry about this, he gets a little desparate when we're pressed for money, and obviously with his talents he thinks he can get away with something like this. Well, it's time I put my foot down! Here, take your money back and some of our money, and take this here too." Kard said, pulling out a masive golden rock on a chain. He held it out to Nikose appologetically. "Don't worry, if you accept this, all your problems, including us, will disappear. And plus, it's a nugget of pure gold on a chain! I mean, win/win, right?" Kard said.

In the Nine Hells of Bator, beyond Kard's knowledge, his every action was being montored because of one item in his possession.
This particular item happened to hold years of research on how to unite the planes, and ultimately cause the demons to rule.
The demon at the pot of scalding water he was using for scrying gasped and ran off to get his senior officer.
That particular knowledge-holding item, known as an amulet of good luck to Kard, was precisely what he was about to hand over.
It had been given to him because he seldom visited the demon's realm and therefore gave the rival factions no chance of stealing it.
If the hunk of gold left his hands, quite frankly, every demon would know where it was at within a day.
Upon hearing this news, the senior Balor sighed and dispatched the messanger with a spot of fire, casting him into a large pit of lava, his scream dying as he hit the bubbling liquid.
He knew he should have picked a smarter guardian.

((Ooh... sort that one out amongst yourselves... I think People won't be happy overcast. We were letting him get away with it until the last second.))
Nikose checked his money purse. "Hm. Lead. illusioned lead. cheap trick." Nikose took the lead plunk filled bag and threw it overhand, causing the lead plunks to fly through the air in all directions, a trick he had learned that distracted all spellcasters and psions he knew.

((OOC:My character usually can just make some but since others can't he felt guilty if he kept silent))
"Well boys it is good you wish to make up for this horrid thing you have done, but I'm afraid it isn't good enough you have to die." he lifted up his hand and emitted a red flash and a *ting* sound, but no real energy he was just seeing if he could freak them out.
There Happy now?
